Chicken in the Kitchen by Mehrdokht Amini, Nnedi Okorafor

3.0

This is a good book with vibrant pages which draw your attention to the chicken. Anyaugo hears noises coming from her kitchen one night and goes down to see what is happening, she finds a chicken which is trying to eat the food ready for the New Yam festival. Anyaugo goes to find the Wood Wit to help her with the chicken, however the reader could infer that it is the Wood Wit causing the trouble in the first place. The story relates to the New Yam festival giving children information in a subtle and easily understanding way.
